The come back kid

The reason for not being on the board was not that I could not find time for writing but rather me being too lazy!
As my professional raph is progressing, I am realizing that how important it is to utilize your free time (if you get any!), and surely as far as learning this art is concerned, It’s a long way to go for me! But not for those who have been their done that.

Especially some one like Tendulkar who knows only one thing, how to surprise his critics and come out as a winner. True, that due to dismal performance with bat, India is no longer a party in the on going DLF cup and by the time most of you would read this, West Indies or Australia (more likely) would have won the cup!
But what has emerged out from this tournament is that the little master still has bigger plans for the team and is in no mood to let his injuries take over his performance.
Not going by his scores, I think the shots that he played throughout the tournament are a testimonial of the fact that his mental state has taken over his physical grievances.

The first match saw sachin playng shots all over the park in his classic style and for once, the memories of late 90’s flashed back. True, that with his age, the aggression in his batting has taken a form of subtle arrogance. Sachin dancing down the track to warne and clearing the rope might not be a reality now but his footwork is still the best when it comes to playing against spinners.
The amount of risk hat he still takes is an evidence of him being the number one in the list of bowlers.
Clearly, the king has re emerged from darkness of past and has announced his arrival and that too in a big way. His score of 142 in the first match is just a warning signal, a wave that will surely hit hard to the opposition in the forthcoming Champions trophy.
Given the home conditions, it would only be best for the bowlers to make out a well crafted strategy against him lest they can expect a never lasting parable of runs..

So those who thought that an era has ended this is wake up call for them. The GOD still exists and his powers are still intact, so beware!
Coz this autumn, fireworks goanna be not just their in the sky! But in the stands!

The nighmares for shane warne and others are just about to return..

This comeback kid has surely announced his arrival in style and it’s a matter of time before he starts his journey to regain the no.1 spot which has long been deprived from him
